I am writing to you to tell you that I am very disappointed with your behaviour. 

You are not serious about the things that matter, e.g. I & A results, reading books, revising by reading your textbooks and doing the exercises, practising your instruments, on your own accord. 

You are more concerned about getting updates on what your friends put up on their statuses and the latest WhatsApp messages, than to read newspapers or listen to the news. 

I tried to help by sending you articles to read, but what did you do to help yourself except by giving lamp excuses?

You were given the flexibility to plan your own timetable but you are taking it for granted by not having a plan, waiting for us to nudge you then you move a little.

Where is the self discipline? 

I took efforts and time to find the books, both e-copies and hard copies. And what kind of behaviours did you exhibit? Nonchalant and don’t care attitude, it doesn’t seem to matter to you at all.

I asked you to read the books and all I heard are reasons not to. Why did you behave in such a way?

Do you know it’s heartaching to hear this from you? It matters to me, because I did it knowing that it is for your own good.

Where is your sense of gratitude and appreciation?

I want to treat you like a matured girl but are you behaving like One? 

How would you feel if I start not to behave and do like what a father typically does? 

What if I don’t keep my promises anymore?

What if I don’t care about what you say or feel anymore?

What if I don’t want to try to be my best anymore?

I cannot bring myself to do any of these, because even thinking about them makes me feel lousy.

Deep down within me, I believe that you are a mature and intelligent girl, so show me that I am right.

~ Daddy

Ok sorry daddy I will do better next time
